What is the right age to allow my children to use Social Media?
The right age for children to use social media depends on their maturity, responsibility, and the platform’s minimum age requirements (typically 13+).
Parents should consider factors like online safety, privacy, and screen time balance.
Open communication, parental controls, and gradual exposure can help ensure a safe and positive experience.

YOUNG CARERS
Children who do a lot to help look after a family member who is sick, disabled or has a mental health condition are Young Carers. Most Young Carers look after one of their parents or care for a brother or sister. You may have to help the person you look after or take care or your brother and sisters, so you don’t get much time for going out or being with your friends. Being a Young Carer sometimes makes things difficult at school too. North Staffs Carers is here to help Young Carers..
